Meghan and Harry reportedlybarred from using ‘SussexRoyal’ label going forward

Maybe they can trademark “certified former royal?”
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will be moving forward in their new life without a valuable part of their brand, with the Queen and other senior Palace officials reportedly agreeing the couple will no longer be able to keep the word “royal” as a part of their brand.
According to the Daily Mail, the two had hoped to leverage “Sussex Royal” into not just a new website but a “global trademark for a range of items and activities, including clothing, stationery, books and teaching materials” and a new charitable organization with the name.

what a disaster these two are. i don't think this is unfolding as they expected. once we get their "tell-all" stories told, for top price i am sure, what will they have left to sell, brand, tout, i wonder?? i think their delusions of grandeur are being downsized as we speak.

This pair of sell-outs wants to use "Royal" in a “global trademark for a range of items and activities" that no one wants, such as $450 vegan candles, à la Gwyneth Paltrow; stale, non-GMA coffee at $95 per 12 ounces; and "skin care products" that include Meg´s own recipe!!! - she IS super-gorgeous and down-to-earth, you know.
To think that the Duke of Edinburgh made Harry the Captain of the Royal Marines when he retired age 95, a tremendous privilege that now seems squandered on Mr Windsor-Markle-Mountbatten. That must be a crushing disappointment to Harry´s 98-year-old grandfather, who was of a tougher and more sensible generation who carried out their duties come hell or high water. His warrior grandson (and Harry was a brave fighter in Afghanistan) has become a "wet." He now looks like a washed up former C-list actor who played a suit on a mediocre cable legal drama - just like MEghan!!
It was just meant to be. Even SussexRoyal´s "Astrologer Royal" said so (at $795 a pop).

We knew this was coming. The powers in the British monarchy don't cotton to being abandoned and then used by those who did the ditching. I doubt Harry and Meghan have fully realized that when they are no longer part of the royal environment, they are no longer special. They are simply Harry and Meghan who used to be royal.

In spite of how ridiculous they are, these two entitled grifters will do well with the many adoring fans who take their side. Just like hollyweirds and big name democrat political families, they can do no wrong.

Slowly but surely, the RF is giving Harry the same treatment the Queen's Uncle David (formerly HRH Edward VII) got - exile and for essentially the same reason. Once the novelty of H & M wears off, they have very little to offer and will disappear into obscurity just like the Duke and Wallis did. I doubt the marriage will survive after that. Meghan will get a handsome settlement, and Harry will tuck in his tail and skulk back to his family.

Meghan and Harry will soon learn they have been had by the royals, who have gladly endorsed them moving to Canada, not paying them, and having them stay there in oblivion. Britain has long been known for emigrating their undesirables.

They should change it to "Suck-ups Royal!" Sounds similar to the original and is more apropos for those two, at least until Prince Sadsack locates the key to Nutmeg's lockbox and rescues his purloined gonads!!

Once in Hollywood Harry and Meghan could just tell the Queen to jump in the lake and keep using their Sussex Royal moniker anyway. You got to remember that Hollywood is full of fake Royalty, an establishment that will embrace Harry and Meghan as long as that Hollywood fake Royalty thinks there is a buck in it for them.

When Barack Obama secured the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, he famously declared, “We will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide ... good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.”
Looking back with 2020 hindsight (pun intended), Obama and everyone else in 2008 would be surprised to learn that significant improvements in the economy, inequality, and emissions would occur but that the public would credit them not to Obama’s eight-year tenure but to Donald Trump’s victory on Nov. 8, 2016.

NEW ORLEANS—Standing in line at the hardware store on the edge of the French Quarter one December Monday, I overheard the cashier talking to a regular customer about manhole covers that had exploded just before dawn that morning a couple of blocks away. The metal discs had burst into buildings and crashed into the underside of a car, which in turn caught fire. Power outages and evacuations had ensued. This was just the latest addition to a cluster of troubling events. In the previous few days, a turbine powering the low-lying city’s storm-drainage system had also exploded, unrelated water-main ruptures had flooded neighborhoods on opposite sides of town,

At a CNN town hall event in Las Vegas, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders was asked: “How do U.S.-Israel relations look under your administration?”
He replied:
“To be for the Israeli people and to be for peace in the Middle East does not mean that we have to support right-wing, racist governments that currently exist in Israel….”
In April 2019, at another CNN town hall event, [Sanders] described Netanyahu’s approach toward the Palestinians as “oppressive” and said Israel is “now run by a right-wing—dare I say—racist government.”

Statistics estimate 36,000 people are homeless in Los Angeles, but the city isn’t providing bathrooms to most of them. As the NBCLA I-Team has found, the tons of human waste landing on city streets are creating an urgent public health threat.
In one act caught on camera, a homeless man is seen waking up on South Hope Street. He unbuckles his belt, walks over to the front door of a business, pulls down his pants, and defecates right on the door mat in broad daylight.

Ever since President Trump commuted the sentence of disgraced former governor of Illinois Rod Blagojevich, I’ve been asking myself why he would do such a thing. I have a theory about what might have contributed to the decision, and if I’m right, Barack Obama should be concerned.
When Barack Obama won the presidency in 2008, it was then-Governor Blagojevich’s responsibility to appoint someone to fill the seat. But, Blagojevich didn’t just want to give it away, he wanted something for it. “A Senate seat is a f----ng valuable thing. You don’t just give it away for nothing,” Blagojevich said at the time.

When then-Hennepin County Attorney Amy Klobuchar was running for the U.S. Senate in Minnesota in 2006, members of the local public employees' union that represented the lawyers on her staff wrote to their state union headquarters asking it to withhold its endorsement from the Democrat.
On behalf of AFSCME Local 2938, chapter President James Appleby penned a letter to the AFSCME state headquarters in South St. Paul, Minn. making the case that Klobuchar was "wholly undeserving of AFSCME's endorsement." The document, obtained by Fox News but previously reported by HuffPost, takes on new relevance as Klobuchar seeks the Democratic nomination for president and the primary campaign moves to union-heavy Nevada.

It used to be that a murderous regime needed a pliable Western journalist to get its propaganda printed in the New York Times.
Not anymore!
It can submit directly to the Times opinion section, as the Taliban proved this week.
“What We, the Taliban, Want,” reads the actual headline to an article published Thursday by an actual American newsroom.
The op-ed, authored by Taliban deputy leader and suspected terrorist Sirajuddin Haqqani, opens with a series of sentences that attempt to “both sides” the conflict between the Taliban and the United States and present the Americans as unreliable and untrustworthy negotiators.

The attacks on Michael Bloomberg came early and often at Wednesday’s debate in Las Vegas, but none of them, of course, touched on his infamous “kill it” comment to a pregnant subordinate. No, the party of abortion at all stages wasn’t going to touch that one. Instead, Elizabeth Warren focused on Bloomberg’s thoughts about “horse-faced lesbians” and “fat broads.”
Bloomberg has paid advisers millions of dollars to prepare him for just such moments, but he still acted like he was answering the challenges for the first time. He came off as cold and flat-footed — the unlikeable technocrat trying woodenly to make himself palatable to a left-wing audience with half-hearted answers.

Forget Lincoln and Douglas. Forget Nixon and Kennedy. Hell, forget the Athenians and the Melians back during the Peloponnesian War. Last night’s Democratic primary slagfest in Nevada was the greatest debate in all of human history.
Oh, was it glorious — the sheer raging hostility spraying across the stage as every campaign besides the Bernie Sanders and Michael Bloomberg bids face the desperate possibility each might fade into the woodwork against the Bernie surge and the Bloomberg billions.
No, my friends, everybody was wearing steel-tipped boots and going right for the crotch. Those weren’t snowflakes. They were nunchucks.

Six people entered the debate stage Thursday night to try and justify their campaigns’ viability to Nevada voters, and five of them spent large chunks of the time taking turns attacking a man who is not the incumbent President or the Democratic frontrunner.
It was an odd, but somewhat predictable night in Las Vegas as the top six Democrats running to be the Democratic nominee this year debated on key issues. A lot of the airtime was spent attacking Mike Bloomberg, who is a distant second to Sanders in recent polling, and Sanders actually got away relatively unscathed. Buttigieg, Klobuchar, and Warren tried to keep themselves relevant

President Trump on Wednesday signed a memorandum directing more of California’s scarce water supply to farmers and other agriculture interests in the state's Central Valley, a Republican stronghold.
Speaking alongside House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy in the lawmaker’s hometown of Bakersfield, Trump boasted of how his administration reworked environmental rules to assure more water gets to farmers, while also taking shots at his political rivals – from California Gov. Gavin Newsom to Democratic presidential primary hopeful and former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg.
“For too long water authorities have flushed millions of gallons into the Pacific,” Trump said. “I ordered the administration to update outdated opinions

Elizabeth Warren shamed Mike Bloomberg for allegedly calling women “fat broads.”
Amy Klobuchar asked Pete Buttigieg if he was calling her “dumb.”
Bloomberg shut down Bernie Sanders by quipping that "the best-known socialist in the country happens to be a millionaire with three houses."
The Democrats’ showdown Wednesday night in Las Vegas repeatedly put Bloomberg in his primary rivals’ crosshairs as the surging billionaire made his debate-stage debut. But the conflagration quickly expanded into an all-out melee and easily the most aggressive debate of the nomination season to date, as each of the candidates took sharp and often personal shots at one another.

Neil Young has published a searing open letter in which he bashes Donald Trump as “a disgrace to my country”. Young posted the missive online on Tuesday. The Canadian-born musician, an outspoken opponent to the US president, announced last month that he had become a US citizen and intended to use his new voting rights to support the Democrats. In his new open letter, Young also reiterates his support for Bernie Sanders, whom he previously backed in 2016.(Snip) “Your mindless destruction of our shared natural resources, our environment, and our relationships with friends around the world is unforgivable.” Source corrected.

Cher took another shot at President Donald Trump Wednesday, suggesting he’ll soon make good on his hyperbolic promise made in jest to shoot someone in New York City and get away with it.
The 73-year-old singer often sounds off about Trump and the political landscape on her Twitter page. Wednesday was no exception as the outraged celebrity jabbed Trump’s detractors for referring to his actions as “unprecedented.”

Hollywood commodifies women. It always has and, the #MeToo movement notwithstanding, it always will. Maybe, then, it shouldn't be a surprise that on Wednesday news broke that Steven Spielberg’s 23-year-old daughter Mikaela is going to make it on her own commodifying herself as soft porn artist selling films highlighting her big breasts. (snip) We don’t know what went on in the house of Stephen Spielberg and Kate Capshaw, but their child Mikaela was an unhappy child and a troubled young adult – and now seems to have decided that the best way to empower herself is through pornography

'Squad' congresswoman Ilhan Omar told friends years ago that the man who went on to become her second husband was in fact her brother, DailyMail.com can confirm. And now for the first time one of those friends has come forward to reveal exactly how Omar and Ahmed Elmi scandalized the Somali community in Minneapolis. Abdihakim Osman is the first person to go on record to speak of how Omar said she wanted to get her brother papers so he could stay in the United States, at a time when she was married to her first husband Ahmed Hirsi.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) stated during her Wednesday interview on "The View" the billionaires behind companies like Walmart and Amazon should not exist because they underpay their employees.
Co-host Meghan McCain asked Ocasio-Cortez how she felt about the presence of billionaires Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomberg in the Democratic race for president. Both Steyer and Bloomberg have spent vast amounts of personal wealth on their campaigns, with Bloomberg topping the spending chart.

Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders lost his cool when former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg called him the “best known socialist” who “happens to be a millionaire with three houses.” A fiery end to what had already been a contentious Democratic primary debate, which included the billionaire businessman for the first time, was sparked by NBC anchor Lester Holt’s question to Sanders about two-thirds of voters being “uncomfortable with a socialist candidate for president.”

Appearing Tuesday on the Fox Business Network, House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC) dismissed record-low black unemployment under President Donald Trump, stating black Americans “were fully employed during slavery.”
A transcript is as follows:
NEIL CAVUTO: As you’ve been seeing with Michael Bloomberg, he’s been jumping in the polls on the heels of his very expensive, pricey ad buys if you include $125 million slated for Super Tuesday. Could you, would you back him?
REP. JAMES CLYBURN: I’m going to back whoever our nominee is — Absolutely.
CAVUTO: Even with the things he’s said about African-Americans? Does that bother you?
REP. CLYBURN: Not as much as what Trump has said about African-Americans.

Michael Bloomberg had a lot of bad moments in his first debate as a Democratic candidate for president. He had little to say when Elizabeth Warren slammed him for having called some women, at various times in the past, "fat broads" and "horse-faced lesbians." He seemed conflicted about stop-and-frisk. He was weak when confronted with his practice of making some women who worked for him sign non-disclosure agreements.
But even with all that, Bloomberg saved the worst for last. It came after the fighting ended and NBC moderators asked for closing statements.
If there were a time for Bloomberg to offer a vision for the country,

Mike Bloomberg boasted about sending his “tall and busty and blonde” teenage daughter on dates he arranged during a business trip in China, according to a newly-resurfaced report on the billionaire presidential hopeful from 1999. The quotes were published in a Wired magazine profile on Mr Bloomberg—despite his demands for them to remain “off the record” after he made the comments to a table of Boston College graduates. “My daughter is tall and busty and blonde,” Mr Bloomberg told the graduates, Wired reported. “We went to China together. And what's a 16-year-old going to do on a business trip?"

Claim: Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders said that his radical Green New Deal scheme would create 20 million jobs. Verdict: False. Although Sanders has been touting this 20 million figure for months, there is no evidence that the vast changes to the American economy his plan entails would actually add more jobs than it would subtract. While some new jobs would be created to shift America’s economy toward renewable energy, many jobs would also be eliminated.
